Edgerly, Gisele; And Others
Text, illustrations and exercises are utilized in this set of six learning modules dealing with health topics of interest to the general public. The first module, "Do You Know Your Rights as a Patient?" by Gisele Edgerly, details the personal and financial rights of hospital patients. The second module, "The Consumer's Guide to Hearing Health Care or Do Something about Your Hearing" by Dale Anne Spears, describes the respective roles of the physician, audiologist, and hearing aid dispenser in diagnosing and treating patients with hearing disorders. The third module, "The Importance of Women Receiving Regular Pap Smears" by Jane Green, describes pap smear procedures, identifies the facilities where women may receive tests, and discusses the attitudinal problems which often prevent women from obtaining pap tests. The fourth module, "Don't Stick Me with That Needle!" was designed by Linda L. Kundert to ameliorate children's fears of having their blood drawn by a phlebotomist. The fifth module, "Alcohol and You" by Michele D. Sandro, describes the physiological effects of alcoholic beverages. The sixth module, "The Venereal Diseases" by Kathy Gunn, examines the prevention of venereal diseases, their symptoms, and provisions for treatment. The modules, which each take 30 minutes to complete, provide reinforcement exercises with immediate feedback and post-tests with answer keys. (JP)
